"We need illegal immigrants because American's won't do the work!"
As this case proves, liberals are woefully uninformed, America-hating, emotional crybabies who should NEVER be trusted to guide American policy. EVER!
And black people.....when will you folks EVER LEARN that Democrats and Liberals are NOT on your side? These are jobs your community could have taken years ago....and yet you absolutely refuse to hold Democrats accountable for WILLINGLY letting your jobs be given to ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS????
Raise your hand if you're still for giving these people amnesty???
Unbelievable!
I was watching a film made in 1983 about Mexicans attempting to cross over and the same comment was used in the film. Nothing has changed.
I seem to recall when Alabama enacted harsher policies on hiring undocumented immigrants, a lot of food ended up rotting in the field because producers couldn't find American workers to do the work as quickly or as well (or at all).
I'm not saying what's right or wrong, but I am saying apparently it is hard to find American citizens to do this work.
There are unlimited H-2A visas for legal, foreign crop pickers so there is no excuse to hire illegal aliens except for pure greed. Let that be a lesson to these growers. You don't need Americans to do those jobs (but some will) when you have these visas at your disposal. The problem is that they don't want to pay a decent pay and be responsible for their visa holder's well being. They get no sympathy from me and their dilema is their own doing.
If they or any other businesses can't stay afloat without breaking the law by hiring illegal aliens then they should go out of business.
The article is five years old. The House of Raeford is a privately held company. The CEO Marvin Johnson is a Republican donor. The article noted the company refused to use E-Verify. Later in 2009 the company settled a case with the Federal Government so that a couple of the supervisors could avoid going to prison. But of course its all the Democrats fault for not securing the border. Do Republicans get a free pass?

The first time I heard the phrase, "jobs Americans wont do" was when George Bush said it in his first state of the union speech after his reelection. That had to be the first time a US president used the state of the union as a forum to insult the American people.

Excellent point. One of the issues I had with GWB was his stance on illegal immigration.
Are the illegal invaders taking the jobs because they are really low pay like below minimum wage? or is it pride like "I aint cleanin no toilets" where they COULD make more money.
thats funny because you can clean toilets, etc, (become a plumber) and make a ton of money doing a nasty job. the world will always need plumbers.
well, reality has hit, and the illegal invaders are here. so someone can sit on their butt, complain, and earn nothing. meanwhile the sneaky illegal invaders and those bleeding heart liberals and companies who skirt the legal laws about hiring, will be overjoyed. meanwhile life goes on. you can either complain and get nothing, or do something and get something. and maybe even a raise in time.
Completely agree OP. Tens of thousands of American workers have been laid off from companies like Hewlett Package, Coca Cola, Wendy's, Verizon and more, and over 100 corporations wrote a letter to Pelosi and Boehner demanding immigration reform so they can replace the jobs with immigrants. See the article below with a link to the letter. Now in the letter they say they are having a hard time filling the jobs with American workers. But the article shows the layoffs. Now THAT is repulsive.

Plumbers don't clean toilets the get them working properly, the next time you hire a plumber ask him to clean your toilet and let us know what he says. And no one wants to work in a field doing hard sweaty,dirty just downright nasty work for below minimum wage. Heck if your paying low enough how's the worker going to be able to afford housing or food ? Do you really think someone would want to live at work like that ?
Takes physical stamina to work outdoors. I wager a number of Americans older than age group 18-30 could not handle the work. Also a smaller portion within the above age group as well.
